dot3 bump mapping

It works:

interior bump2, fsaa fastest
interior bump, fsaa nicest, some bloom

These shots have parts with no bump mapping overlayed so you can see the difference.

I'll have it to get it to work with fog now. After that I'll try to add parallax bump mapping.

cheers

Bloom and FSAA on Mac

I have played with the shadercode a little bit and found a way to enable FSAA on my nvidia card.

TGE Bloom

I have been playing with post filters the last 2 days because I also want some cheesy fake hdr bloom effect in my pet project. Here is what I got so far:

0 passes (the reference)
4 passes
8 passes
16 passes
32 passes
256 passes

It has been implemented as a gui control so one can control the screen area it affects and the number of passes via script.

I am right now bored with this particular shader and am looking into other effects such as b&w (great for death sequence), infrared etc.

This is all done with the cg toolkit so it adds little to no overhead to overall fps on my Geforce 5200.

Cheers

PS: I forgot to say that this is TGE on Mac.
